New Orleans Pelicans face must-win game, host Detroit Pistons

As the season continues to get away from the New Orleans Pelicans, they’ll get a shot to play a Detroit Pistons squad who’s a more comparable opponent than some of the teams’ who’ve clobbered the birds of late.

Tonight’s game is set for a 7 p.m. CT tip-off from the floors of the Smoothie King Center.

Coming into the game, the New Orleans Pelicans are 6-17 and currently rank 14th in the Western Conference standings. Meanwhile, the Pistons ride into the Big Easy with a 9-14 record but sit at the comfortable 9th seed in the East.
